"Thank you for the beautiful job with my yard, roof, an gutters. I highly recommend you and your team for the professional work and very reasonable prices. You went the extra mile removing leaves and stump, and putting down weed barrier before adding the bark chips. I love the color. I loved the price."

"Velasco Landscaping did an amazing job installing pavement at my property! From start to finish, the team was professional, efficient, and detail-oriented. The quality of the work exceeded my expectations, and the finished pavement looks fantastic—clean lines, solid craftsmanship, and it’s built to last. They were respectful of the space, cleaned up thoroughly after the job, and completed everything on time. I highly recommend Velasco Landscaping for anyone looking for top-notch paving work and reliable service. Definitely a 5-star experience!"

"The work was not to be performed in the area where the contractors serviced. They should not be charged for the referral as the work was 200 miles from my home. The work was near Redding not Pebble Beach. I did not make any request for work in PB"

Lawn Care FAQs, answered by experts

To prepare your lawn for core aeration, water it the day before you aerate. (Alternatively, you can wait until it rains and aerate the following day.) Aerating after watering or a rainy day will make the process easier since you can penetrate moist soil better than dry soil. You should also flag your sprinklers so that you don’t accidentally hit them while aerating. If you have a lot of thatch buildup in your yard, you might need to dethatch your lawn before aerating as well.

Many homeowners in warmer climates like this resilient, hearty grass because it can tolerate excessive heat and drought while developing into a lush lawn. Unlike other grasses, Bermuda grass grows and spreads quickly and can withstand excessive foot traffic. But whether Bermuda grass is good for lawns may depend on your geographic location, as this grass has a low tolerance for cooler temperatures, which causes it to go dormant and turn brown in the winter months.

Here are some questions you should ask lawn mowing companies before hiring one to service your lawn:

  • How long have you been in business?

  • Are you licensed and fully insured?

  • Do you collect and haul away cut grass or mulch it and leave it behind?

  • Do you provide add-on services other than lawn mowing?

  • Do you plan to use herbicides and pesticides?

  • If I run into an issue with service, what does the resolution process look like?

If your grass is stressed from being over-trimmed, try watering it heavily and then allowing it to recover for at least two weeks before mowing again. If you notice brown patches where the grass has died off because it’s too short, you should remove the dead grass and overseed the area. Leaving dead patches can invite weeds and other problems, so if you want a totally green lawn, getting rid of dead patches should include removing the dead sections before reseeding the area.

While there’s no exact science to how often you should rake your leaves, a good rule of thumb to follow is to rake leaves every three to four days. However, you can rake more often or less often, depending on how quickly leaves are accumulating on your lawn.
